Far off the coast of Invictus, in tropical feral infested waters, floats the island named Lutetia. Though the island itself seems a paradise of wilderness, it is the many ships that surround it they hold the pokemon of Lutetia.

Corsola Hunting: Useful for food, tools, and wares to sell. Though they do regularly shed and regrow their coral and are prolific on the surrounding reef of Lutetia, the rate of hunting this species has increased in the recent years. The dwindling corsola population has been blamed on mareanie and toxapex instead of taking responsibility for overzealous hunting.

Mareanie, Toxapex, and Bruxish: Some are still silly enough to think these species are capable of being civilized and compassionate, and should not be hunted or otherwise run out of Lutetia.

Lutetia is a tropical area, that sees a steady temperature but violent swings in weather - both natural and unnatural. All manner of marine hazards can and do occur in the region, which can be hard to measure since besides the small Lutetia island itself, there is no visible border of when Lutetian waters becomes anothers.

The majority of the populace live on boats, either ones permanently fixed to the island coast, or free roaming trade ships. The reef offshore also has a small settlement of aquatic pokemon, though the threat of mareanie and toxapex sees them stick closer to the boats.

Lutetia has a small permanent population, with most being merchants, travelers, or mercenaries. There is a strong population of feral aquatic pokemon, though some land pokemon such as tauros have been introduced to the island.

As a safe harbor among turbulent waters, Lutetia has an assortment of backgrounds being sewn together. Said mix of backgrounds leads to a culture that changes like the sea it floats on. The only requirement to becoming a citizen of the country is to have membership and approval from a guild.

Found families: Lutetia is a country of drifters and travelers. The community is made up of large and small guilds the compete against and aid each other. While there are numerous personal disputes and borderline abusive competitive relationships between guilds, it is an unspoken law that the well-being of larger Lutetia comes first - lynching is definitely something that has and will happen to those that take things too far.

Proud fighters: A defining trait of a Luterian is an inflated pride in themselves and their guild. Brawn over brains as some of the less kind assertions of Lutetia go. When you live in seas that have feral gyarados and savage storms, you are either strong enough to survive, or seek another home.

A place for all: Physical prowess may be coveted since it is the most obvious applied type of power, but the knowledge of navigating by the stars, of reading the currents, how to weave a basket, the notes of a historical song - these are all important powers to hold too. Lutetia may be cut from rougher cloth, but they are not completely uneducated.

Ghost pokemon: specifically the frillish family and dhelmise are treated with respect and welcomed back to their guild if they remember them, but otherwise are kept at a wary distance due to their feral counterparts. Many understand that their own death may result in them returning as one of these sea ghosts. There is an uneasy peace between these species and the people of Lutetia.

Leadership in Lutetia is a mishmash between dramatic performance and formal council meetings. The Lutetia Council is made of the leaders of three major guilds - ideally, one to represent the land, the sea, and the sky - that have the majority vote of other guild leaders. Voting for the council members is one of the few times all personal pride is put to the side, with each leader voting for those who have proven themselves the strongest and competent guilds currently in Lutetia.

Guild leadership is gained through challenging the current leader. Each guild has their own traditional challenge type, things varying from an outright brawl, a deep sea race, to a trivia quiz on the guilds of Lutetia.

This is not so much as one country, but several small ones that banded together for the sake of their own protection from the power of greater countries. They all hate each other's guts and erupt into civil wars frequently, but it's necessary for them all to work together due to their bigoted way of thinking. Pokemon that live here all share similar if not the same beliefs, so they are highly intolerant towards others who disagree to the point that they often do not go elsewhere or allow others in even if any wanted to move into these nations.

Stereotypes: Every pokemon has a stereotype that these pokemon believe are built-in desires based on the type of the pokemon. Water types are considered beings of vanity and beauty, Fire is seen as hot-headed and rash, and grass is the calm and quiet type. A complete list will be provided later on, but it is due to these beliefs that many are harmed within this nation. Outsiders that have more accepting ideas are often treated with disgust and unfairness regardless of their type. Any that argue that these beliefs should be dropped are often shunned and ostracized. Activists exist within these countries to try to change their ways of thinking, but there's also a counter-group that desires to snuff out or punish any of those activists as soon as they make their presence and ideology known.

Outsiders: Seeing as others generally have ideas that are more supportive of an individualistic identity, the inhabitants have a deep-seeded hatred and even fear of outsiders. They are afraid that they will change their beliefs and lead them astray from the valuable knowledge on the "true nature" of others. Many tourists and outsiders are often robbed of their belongings, chased out, or killed. Any who try to argue against them are often told that they are "lying to themselves" or that they are incapable of accepting the truth. The only time they will be kind to outsiders, is if they are in agreement with their beliefs and wish to join them. Liars and heathens of this sort are often sentenced to immediate execution on the spot without even a trial.

Academics: There are no "schools" for the inhabitants, usually, as everyone is taught what their mothers and fathers do for their lifetime job. Everything is taught by the parents and only a few in each tribe know how to read and write and those are the Politicians. The pokemon here are not all that bright and usually haven't received any education beyond what their parents knew as it was not necessary. It's often brought up that they should start schooling their offspring and broadening their horizons, but nobody actually puts forth the effort to do it. The Politicians of the country also usually talk them down from it and insist that everything is fine as it is and there is no need to fix what is not broken.

The turf varies widely as the territories are often spread out across the globe in small groups and clusters relatively close together. There's a main cluster to the east of Ahasa that reside in a simple forest connected to a large plain with rolling hills. It's the biggest collection of nations, but it's still relatively small in comparison to others.

The country is not quite one big place but more of a bunch of smaller tribes that agreed to band together and tolerate one another long enough to unite under MNSP, the population varies greatly and often depends on types. Dual Typing Pokemon often tends to lean towards one or the other, or have a mix of both. The pokemon here often act the same way as their stereotypes as they believe that it is their "true selves" and is the only way to properly behave otherwise they will receive punishment whether through their peers or by a higher power.

Normal/Flying: Pretty much the only ones socially "allowed" to do what they want. They're seen as blank slates that develop with no true inner desires unless they have a dual type that conflicts with this.

Fighting: Often seen as honorable and lovers of combat.

Poison/Dark: Often seen as malicious, manipulative, and evil beyond redemption. It's rare to see either of these types due to how much hatred they face, though those that stick around are often ones that share similar beliefs. As a side note, any eevee that chooses willingly to become an Umbreon is often banished from their home or killed on the spot depending on the family. There is no forgiveness for those who willingly choose a dark path. 

Ground/Rock/Steel: Are often seen as slow, silent, and are often considered to have a deep desire to defend something.

Ghost: Souls of the deceased that have been granted a blank slate and ability to choose their life. They are often seen as an "Achievement" for their hard work or the result of a greater power taking pity upon them for a harsh life. Poison/Dark mixed with ghosts are often seen as practitioners of dark arts or those who have been revived for the sake of punishment.

Fire: Believed the be the typical violent hot-heads who do nothing more than destroy, fight, and make rash decisions.

Water: Considered to be vain and very much attracted to the idea of beauty. Water types are expected to uphold some sort of posture with the air of an aristocratic class.

Grass: Seen as calm and quiet creatures who are often quite shy.

Electric/Bug: Energetic, joyful, and full of optimism. Often seen as child-like and are expected to always have some sort of plan for the day.

Psychic: "Pure" ones who look out for others and share their knowledge. Are also widely feared for their intelligence and sometimes seen as a danger to their country.

Ice: Cold, heartless, soulless. Viewed as complete sociopaths that just mimic emotion, incapable of love, compassion, and empathy.

Dragon: Heartless, ruthless, and cruel. Any dragon that's nice to you has secondary motives in mind.

Fairy: Bubbly creatures that are very empathetic and loving. Often considered to be too loving and forgiving of others by nature and are to be sympathized for being "too nice".

Another important bit of information about this place is that they do not believe in names. Every pokemon is to be referred to as their species name with their "last" name being the occupation they uphold. This means an Audino that is a doctor would be named "Audino Doctor" while an Oran Berry Farmer would have something along the lines of "Harvester" or "Oran". The last names are flexible to avoid families being mixed up, but you most definitely won't be seeing any foreign or nonsensical words as the last name of the pokemon unless they have changed it. Many that wander outside of the countries often adopt a foreign name in order to blend in with others if they feel that they are unsafe with being "themselves".

Each tribe has its own cultural specifics that vary greatly between each other, but overall the belief and hatred for each other is shared mutually.

Another thing that's consistent across the nations is the way families and workers function. Each family is dedicated to a certain line of work that is passed on to their children and their children's children. There is no school or outside education, so the families are expected to teach their kids how to do their job. The offspring are practically required to take over the family business when the parents pass on, even at a young age no matter how dangerous the job may be or how inexperienced they may be.

There is always multiple family lines that cover the same subject and they are expected to both compete and help each other at the same time. If one of the family lines die out, the other is expected to expand and grow their business in their absence. If there are children left behind by the destroyed line, the rival is expected to adopt the children and train them. When a couple decides to work with one another to create a family, they are expected to upkeep their family's business still and split the children evenly among their professions. The idea of having only a single child is usually frowned upon by many and those with one child are often pressured greatly to have another by their peers.

Because of the life-long dedication and training from an early age, the pokemon in this region are incredibly skilled in their professions. A young child could accomplish something an older adult in some other country could do with ease and they are incredibly efficient and hard working in their tasks. Please keep in mind that families are required to adhere to practical professions, so a family of artists likely aren't going to be able to make a living at all.

These different tribes that have banded into one often have difficulty supporting one another. They had banded together in order to be able to be represented in the MNSP as any one of them alone is very small, too plentiful in numbers for each to given a seat, and too insignificant to be of consideration. They are almost always bickering and are an extremely unstable country, all things considered.

Representatives in the MNSP often step in and out within weeks, making the NuA a very unstable country whose opinions and morals fluctuate based on who's at the stand. Each tribe has come to the conclusion that the one who gets to send their representative to the MNSP are ones that have bested the other representatives in combat as a representation that they have more will to serve their tribe than the others. While representatives are supposed to help the entire country, it's very frequent that the reps only have their own tribe in mind and don't really care about the others.

Only these certain types of pokemon can be representatives in NuA: Psychic, Electric, Bug, Grass, Ghost, Fighting, Ground, Rock and Steel, with the latter three being the most popular. If any other type is present in the pokemon, then they will be disallowed as representatives. All representatives that compete are politicians and are capable of both reading and writing.

None so far!
